Any reports? How wet did you get? Anything of interest to share? !!

I went out there with my little one. A long way to travel and with autograph lines a mile long, well, perhaps it is a day for the kids more than us adults.

We stayed and watched the jumper presentation, had a kick of the footy...that was about it.

I preferred it when as Linton St...but I guess we need to embrace our new area.

Not sure i'd do it again next year based on today.

Liked it a lot!

Lots of stalls, great stuff for sale, great for the kids to mix with the players doing footy activities, excellent band and good location, easy to get a park.

Weather was fantastic and then turned unfortunately. I got what I was after and glad we made the effort to drive down. Outstanding work to everyone involved with putting it together.

Ross made a bit of a joke about last night's forward effectiveness. Obviously something didn't go according to plan.

By the way, a few obvious absentees:

Steven, Stanley, Dawson, Cahil

Where was Bakes, Gwilt and Ralph?

Sainternist · Sun 13 Mar 2011 6:20pm

I thought it was cancelled due to the new direction the club has taken recently in becoming not so family orientated.

except that I could not hear what the players were saying,the PA was crap. Disappointed in that,but otherwise it was good...tried not to think how much I miss Moorabbin.

My mother and father travelled for an hour then lined up for 1 1/2 hours to get Roo's autograph on their grandson's jumper. When they were about to go up Roo got up and walked off - no autograph, see ya later.

I'll have to tell him some excuse but he'll be pretty disappointed. We live in Adelaide and there's plenty of pressure put on him by his mates to support the crows - hope this doesn't start the rot.

My advice is to put this in writing to the club.
There are some good people there (maybe membership dept excluded!!!!!) and I have heard plenty of examples where they have gone to a lot of trouble for fans with special requests.
I reckon there is a fair chance they will arrange for Roey to sign it for you.

Of course the easiest way to get something signed is to go to an open training session.
Usually very few people there (as opposed to Family Day), and afterwards players will sign stuff for fans gathered at the fence.
